Abstract
Let k=(kn)nâ¥1 be the sequence given by the conditions k1=0 and kn+1=(1+kn2)/2, nâ¥1. We prove that for any L2-martingale X=(X1,X2,â¦,Xn) we have Emax1â¤kâ¤nXkâ¤supÏEXÏ+knmax1â¤kâ¤nV arXk, where the supremum on the right is taken over all stopping times Ï of X which are bounded by n. Furthermore, it is shown that for each n, the constant kn is the best possible.
